How do the concepts discussed in this lesson apply to your work in your classroom?

Students are often looking for purpose. Teaching them what God’s purpose for mankind and our lives both gives direction and prevents purpose being whatever one feels it should be.

It’s important that our students know that God is their creator, and that He created them with a purpose. How can we teach Math, Reading, Science, if we do not show how God is in all these areas? God gives order… he created us with language so we can learn to read and write and learn more about Him.

The Concepts that were discussed in this lesson apply to my classroom in The way I put biblical principles to all of my teaching including in my math lessons language arts lessons science history. One of my favorite things to do in the classroom is apply The biblical philosophy in working with children who struggle with different tasks. When a child says I can’t do this it’s I’m just not smart, my comeback is “God has created you to be unique he has created you in his image and you can do all things if you trust in him”.

The concepts discussed in this lesson were certainly a reminder of what is most important in the day-to-day education of my students. Understanding who they are in Christ and knowing who God is as Creator is foundational to every topic studied in the classroom each day. Without this foundational understanding, nothing else matters.

Students need to know that they have value, purpose, and belonging. Dr. Black’s assertion that our students need to realize, “I am made in the image of God, and my life has purpose, and God is my Father” underscores an essential truth we need to communicate to our students.
